@trufantom21 I think this high school student looks fine - he looks just like the paintings and amused at the same time! I like that these high school students have gone to the trouble of presenting a more complex version of the Prometheus myth. I think we should thank, not deride them. They're doing FINE!!! And they all look good. They'll stay that way in the future if we encourage them. So - in good, Australian lingo - just wrack off!

As a greek I am happy to see other nations embracing my culture but couldn't you find a Prometheus who wasn't a fatass eating twinky junky?
